Van sides

Sorry guys my Q's always seem light-weight and girly but here goes .
1
I have aquired a pair of second hand fixed windowed sides for my 90 , are they straight forward to fit . Do you advise fitting new seals / rubbers ?
2
Thinking of fitting a spot light to the rear to assist in reversing when dark . I want it to come on when I engage reverse . Can I just wire it up to the existing reversing light or is it more technical than that ?
Thanx
Andrea

Do you advise fitting new seals / rubbers ? Yes, deffo.

If you post yer location, there might be someone local willing to help.

Its a 1 person job if you have a high lift. but as with everything its better with 2

I'd use a relay operated from the existing reverse lamp circuit if you're going to use a 55w spot lamp otherwise you might burn out the reverse switch or your wiring loom.
